Chapter VII The Creditor Comes to the Door
Seeing the yellow cripple looking at me, I hurriedly asked boldly, "Uncle, are they coming at that female corpse?" ”
"No, they're coming at you......"
Before the yellow cripple could speak, he suddenly grabbed my wrist and lightly scratched my wrist with his thumb nail, accompanied by a stinging pain, a stream of blood spilled out, dripping to the ground.
The yellow cripple looked at the three black shadows again, and said with his eyebrows: "The confession has been left, if you still don't know what to do, there is a king law in the mountain!" Ladies and gentlemen, who dares to cross the line? ”
As soon as Huang Cripple's words came out, the three black shadows on the opposite side began to tremble and wail, and then slowly retreated into the shade of the tree, and disappeared completely as they retreated.
As soon as the three black shadows disappeared, a hoarse cry began again in the forest on the left, and I looked to the left in panic, and there was a pale-skinned, bearded man, who was crying and running out of the woods.
The man was barefoot, his clothes were in tatters, and he was covered in mud like a rag.
Seeing this, Huang Cripple hurriedly pinched out a copper coin string strung with a red rope from his waist and hung it on the top of the Suobao stick, and the copper coin began to rattle non-stop when he shook his hand.
Seeing this, the man's cry was even more fierce, originally rushed towards us, when the copper coin rang, he turned his body violently, and actually crashed straight into a big tree on our right, and suddenly he heard a bang, and the man hit the tree and staggered to the ground.
If a normal person hit his head like this, it is estimated that he will not die or be disabled, but the man immediately got up again, as if he didn't even feel the pain at all. But when he got up, he inadvertently turned a side face at me, but I was so frightened that I felt cold, and the man's right forehead was sunken by the tree, and his eyes were deformed and bulging, which is not something that a normal person can do.
But before I could take a closer look, the man turned around again, and ran crookedly in the direction where the three black shadows had disappeared, still howling and crying as he ran, and soon disappeared without a trace.
Seeing this, the yellow cripple turned his head and looked at the woods on the right again, and after holding the treasure stick tightly and slamming it on the ground three times, he raised his hand and pointed at the forest, and said sharply: "They are all gone, and you still bite tightly, do you really want to force me to do it?" ”
I don't know who the cripple is talking to, but as soon as the cripple said this, I heard a sound of gnashing of teeth from the grass on the right-
"Lao Huang, it's really yours, do you dare to take care of the idle things in the mountains? This beam is finished! ”
Before the words fell, I heard a sound in the grass, and a white and chubby thing suddenly came out, with four hooves upside down, and chased in the direction where the three black shadows and the man had disappeared.
I took a closer look at the thing as it ran away, and saw that it was shaped like a pig, and it was like a sheep, and as it ran forward, it unintentionally turned its head and glanced back, and it happened to meet me, and startled me again, it had a human face full of white hair.
Seeing that the thing had also disappeared, Huang Cripple hurriedly tore off a strip of cloth from his body, wrapped it casually on my wrist that was still oozing blood, and said, "I know you have a stomach problem, don't ask too much first, you will know when you should know." ”
Since I went to Lao Li Tou's house last night, I have been holding back my stomach problems, and I am almost suffocated, but the yellow cripple has been unwilling to tell me, but after this night, I realized for the first time that there are too many unknown secrets hidden in this vast mountain, and these secrets can vaguely make me feel that I am closely related to them.
I couldn't hold it back, so I grabbed the cripple who was about to leave and asked, "Uncle, I know you have a hard time, and if you don't want to say it, forget it, but at least you tell me, what are these coming to the door?" What kind of grievances do you have with me? If I die like this, I can at least understand it. ”
Huang lame sighed when he heard this, and replied: "Shousheng cub, you had a feud with Changbai Mountain in your previous life, and you owe a lot of cause and effect, so you are stillborn in this life, and you can live until now, thanks to the mountain ghost who came forward to protect you!" You shouldn't have come back before you were eighteen years old, because there is a corpse in this mountain looking for you all over the mountains, there is a sheep plotting to harm you, and there are many old guests waiting for you, if you don't enter the mountain before the age of eighteen, you will cross the first ghost gate, but your life is about to end, and I really have no other way to save your life......"
I hurriedly asked, "Uncle, who was I in my previous life?" What have you done? ”
"This ......"
Huang Cripple hesitated for a while, and finally shook his head and replied, "Don't ask, I don't dare to say." ”
After the yellow cripple finished speaking, he continued to walk forward, and seeing that he was tight-lipped, I knew that I couldn't ask anything more, so everything was as fate would have it.
After returning to the shack with the female corpse, we made up for sleep again, and although the female corpse did not run away again, I could not sleep well at all.
What did I do in my last life? There are so many unjust creditors in the mountains who want to kill me? I couldn't figure it out.
Just after the fifth watch in the morning, the sky was already cloudy and bright, and Huang Cripple hurriedly called Lao Li Tou and us to continue on their way.
After a night's rest, Lao Li Tou was much more energetic, and the pace of carrying the female corpse on his back was significantly faster, so before noon, we went down the mountain and returned to the Horn Tuo.
After eating a meal at Lao Li Tou's house, Huang Cripple asked Lao Li Tou to prepare the donkey cart, wrapped the female corpse in a quilt and put it on the car, and took her all the way to the Qian family camp.
Qianjiaying is a small town, and there are three small mountain villages named 'Shangying Village, Zhongying Village, and Xiaying Village' around the town, hence the name of three villages and one town. The town and the county seat are separated by a bear blind ridge, so although the distance is not far in a straight line, the winding mountain road is difficult to navigate, and by the time we drove the donkey cart to the town, it was already evening.
Lao Li Tou came to do something, and when he saw that it was not early, he was not in a hurry to let us find the origin of the female corpse, but first found a cheap restaurant, and invited Huang Cripple and us to stir-fry the two of us for a meal, and did not forget to give Huang Cripple two taels of hot rice wine.
While Huang Cripple was drinking, Lao Li Tou asked, "Huang Ye, where are we going next?" ”
Huang Cripple took a sip of wine, shook his head, and replied: "The time of the girl's death can only be estimated to be about three years, and there will not be too much difference, so I can't calculate the specific details, in short, it must be a matter of the Qian family camp, and the specific Qian family camp is not easy to say......
"So, what's next?" Lao Li said worriedly: "We can't just ask when we see people, whose daughter is this dead body?" ”
Huang Cripple smiled and said, "Why do you need to ask when you see someone? Soon someone will come up to ask you, don't believe you......"
Huang Cripple pointed out as he spoke, and through the glass window of the restaurant, he saw a short-haired girl wearing a hooded hat, standing on the side of the donkey cart outside, looking at the corpse of a woman wrapped in a quilt in the cart......
